Very Japanese Games Ep. 5: Ronde～輪舞曲～ (日本語字幕ある！）

Welcome to the 5th episode of Very Japanese Games.

In this episode we are looking at Ronde (pronounced Rondo) on the Sega Saturn. It's the lost, red-headed step-child of the now seemingly forgotten Majin Tensei series.

@TekkenKazuyaMishima I don't even know how many I have but I probably have at least 10 that I have yet to even touch. Once I start them I always finish them but due to the time investment it's hard to catch up.

I'm currently 80 hours into Namco X Capcom with probably 10 more hours to go. After that I'll probably switch up to Digital Devil Saga.

@xcornmuffinx i hear ya lol i have over 25 lol played an beat most but have to catch up on some i even replay a lot of mine :)

[xcornmuffinx]

@TekkenKazuyaMishima I haven't played it. I've heard a lot of good things but I have so many RPGs to catch up on that I can't justify buying more until I start clearing out some of the older ones.

[TekkenKazuyaMishima]

@xcornmuffinx by all means i will get em once i get a job cant wait :D im currently playn Radiant Historia (not far just started but epic so far)

[xcornmuffinx]

@TekkenKazuyaMishima Strange Journey has a great soundtrack. It's easily the best soundtrack for a DS game. I think I put 80 hours or so into that game as well. Not only that, after I beat it, I immediately started a second playthrough. It's just a great game overall. P3P I put 120 hours into as well.

Both are definitely worth their full prices but now they are both in the cheap range. Especially Strange Journey.

@xcornmuffinx Hey man :), it's ok if ya can't an yeah i will definetly get Strange Journey an i LOVE Video game music so i listened to some of its music an oh boy did i LOVE tha last boss theme named "Fear of God" now THAT is a way to build up a last boss character with a theme like THAT lol cant wait to get it an yeah i will get tha psp one like i said though i have to find a job first then it will be easy to get tha games :) speakn of reviews i will very soon review sonic adventure 1 :)

@TekkenKazuyaMishima If you have a PSP, play Persona 3. It shouldn't be too expensive now. Or if you have a DS, get SMT: Strange Journey or the upcoming Devil Survivor 2 (or the first one). I think Strange Journey is relatively cheap now. I think I got my copy $15 new.

I don't have the SS RPG, but it's ridiculously cheap (a quick check reveals that it's about 120 yen). If I pick it up it'd be a while before I got around to it for review though, my review list is long.

[TekkenKazuyaMishima]

I REALLY want to play a Persona or Shin Megami Tensei but all are exspensive sadly an i need to find a job to get em :( will though once i do always been interested in this series (Shin Megami Tensei) curious speakn of games to never be released outside Japan do ya have Samurai Showdown RPG could ya do a review on it if ya do :)?

@xcornmuffinx I see.

@MysticArksRevenge Well, I guess if you don't have a train commute it's not as convenient but I go to and from work on a train so that turns into valuable PSP time.

I don't mind social links but I didn't go crazy with them either. I didn't try for max social links, I just leveled up links with people I thought would give me useful personas. I glossed over a lot of that stuff too. I was still able to end the game with all the highest level personas (Messiah, Satan, Lucifer)
